Nix Development

Research-first Nix development using parallel Context7 query-docs calls for accurate, up-to-date information.

Workflow

Copy1. IDENTIFY  → Match question to relevant repos
2. QUERY     → Launch parallel subagents to query Context7
3. SYNTHESIZE → Combine results into actionable guidance

Notes

Repo routing tables, query patterns, and Context7 library IDs live in reference.md.
